ONSL/EBAY

ONSL is a stock I have recently been following, I want to take a 'long' postition (not a day trade) in this, simply because of it's association with the ebay crowd.

This is a good post on ONSL trading/chart

Trading vs Investing

an alternative (best/worst of both worlds)

if you go into a trade, and like it for both quick scalps and longer term
when you sell,just hold a small piece,100/200/500/1000 shares, whatever; and make believe you don't own them
I've done that for years with reasonably good results
but once every 6 months to 2 years sell most of them if I think the overall market is ready for a major downfall as I did last June/July

recent examples of ones we have talked about on this thread and were traded in the Z portfolio that are "sitting" in my don't watch account and may stay there for 3 months to five years
AVI 200 13 5/8
CSCO 100 47 1/8
GCO 1000 4 3/16
NITE 500 5 1/4
RCL 200 19 1/4
TECD 100 38 1/2
WFMI 100 34 1/2

just an idea
